Aleksandr Martynov and his wife, Lyudmila Razumova
A court in Russia’s western region of Tver has sentenced a couple to prison terms for condemning Moscow’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine online. The Konakovo City Court on March 17 sentenced Aleksandr Martynov and his wife, Lyudmila Razumova, to 6 1/2 and 7 years in prison, respectively, after finding them guilty of vandalism and discrediting Russia's armed forces. The couple was arrested in April last year after they criticized the war on a social network and painted anti-war slogans on buildings in several villages and towns in the region.
